Removable cup atomizer

Abstract

A removable cup atomizer comprising a cylindrical body having a hollow interior, a heating element positioned in the hollow interior, a connection means connected to a bottom portion of the cylindrical body. The connection means is configured to provide electrical power. The electrical power heats the heating element. A removable cylindrical cup is positioned on the heating element. The cylindrical cup is configured to accept an amount of matter which is heated by the heating element such that the amount of matter is vaporized and may be inhaled by a user.

What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A removable cup atomizer comprising:
 a cylindrical body having a hollow interior; 
 a ceramic donut shaped heating element positioned in the hollow interior; 
 a connection means connected to a bottom portion of the cylindrical body, wherein the connection means is configured to electrically connect with electrical power to heat the ceramic donut shaped heating element to a predetermined temperature; and 
 a removable cylindrical cup is separate and independent from the donut shaped heating element positioned on the ceramic donut shaped heating element, wherein the removable cup is one-piece with side walls and a bottom wherein the cylindrical cup is configured to accept an amount of matter which is heating during operation via thermal conduction from the ceramic donut shaped heating element such that the amount of matter is vaporized and may be inhaled by a user via a vaporizer. 
 
     
     
       2. The removable cup atomizer of  claim 1 , further comprising a threaded cap configured to be threaded on the cylindrical body, wherein the threaded cap holds the removable cylindrical cup in position during operation. 
     
     
       3. The removable cup atomizer of  claim 2 , wherein the threaded cap is an external cap and the cylindrical body includes external threads configured to receive the threaded cap. 
     
     
       4. The removable cup atomizer of  claim 2 , wherein the threaded cap is an internal cap and the cylindrical body including internal threads configured to receive the threaded cap. 
     
     
       5. The removable cup atomizer of  claim 4 , wherein the threaded cap includes a pair of grooves. 
     
     
       6. The removable cup atomizer of  claim 1 , wherein the cylindrical body is constructed from stainless steel. 
     
     
       7. The removable cup atomizer of  claim 1 , wherein the removable cylindrical cup is titanium. 
     
     
       8. The removable cup atomizer of  claim 1 , wherein the removable cylindrical cup is ceramic. 
     
     
       9. The removable cup atomizer of  claim 1 , wherein the removable cylindrical cup is quartz. 
     
     
       10. A removable cup atomizer comprising:
 a cylindrical body having a hollow interior; 
 a heating element positioned in the hollow interior; 
 a connection means connected to a bottom portion of the cylindrical body, wherein the connection means is configured to electrically connect to electrical power to heat the heating element; and 
 a removable cup that is separate and independent from the heating element, where the removable cup is one piece and has side walls and a bottom and the removable cup is touching the heating element, wherein the removable cup is configured to accept an amount of matter which is heated during operation via thermal conduction from the heating element such that the amount of matter is vaporized and may be inhaled by a user. 
 
     
     
       11. The removable cup atomizer of  claim 10 , further comprising a cap configured to hold the removable cup in position during operation. 
     
     
       12. The removable cup atomizer of  claim 11 , wherein the cap is an external cap and the cylindrical body is configured to receive the external cap. 
     
     
       13. The removable cup atomizer of  claim 12 , wherein the cap is threaded and the cylindrical body includes external threads configured to receive the threads of the external cap. 
     
     
       14. The removable cup atomizer of  claim 11 , wherein the cap is an internal cap and the cylindrical body is configured to receive the internal cap. 
     
     
       15. The removable cup atomizer of  claim 14 , wherein the cap is threaded and the cylindrical body includes internal threads configured to receive the threads of the internal cap. 
     
     
       16. The removable cup atomizer of  claim 15 , wherein the cap includes a pair of grooves. 
     
     
       17. The removable cup atomizer of  claim 10 , wherein the cylindrical body is constructed from metal. 
     
     
       18. The removable cup atomizer of  claim 10 , wherein the removable cup is metal. 
     
     
       19. The removable cup atomizer of  claim 10 , wherein the sidewalls are cylindrical and the bottom is flat. 
     
     
       20. A removable cup atomizer comprising:
 a cylindrical body having a hollow interior; 
 a heating element positioned in the hollow interior; 
 a connection means connected to a bottom portion of the cylindrical body, wherein the connection means is configured to electrically connect to electrical power to heat the heating element; 
 a removable cup that is separate and independent from the heating element, where the removable cup has side walls and a bottom, and the sidewalls are cylindrical and the bottom is flat and the removable cup is positioned on the heating element, wherein the cylindrical cup is configured to accept an amount of matter which is heated without the matter coming in contact with the heating element during operation when the amount of matter is vaporized and may be inhaled by a user via a vaporizer; and 
 a threaded cap configured to be threaded on the cylindrical body, wherein the threaded cap holds the removable cup in position during operation, wherein the threaded cap is an external cap and the cylindrical body includes external threads configured to receive the threaded cap.
